One of the most sought-after broadcasters in Philippine journalism, Ivan Mayrina is set to join the panel discussion titled, “Journalism in the Age of Big Tech: How to Survive in the Era of Disinformation” at the Rolling Stone Philippines LIVE!
The event happens this Friday, March 21 at the Maybank Performing Arts Theater in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. Moderated by multi-award-winning journalist Atom Araullo, the conversation will tackle the challenges of traditional media and its evolution in the digital era.

As the anchor of GMA’s Unang Hirit and 24 Oras, Mayrina has built a reputation for delivering hard-hitting news and thought-provoking stories that keep the public informed and engaged.
But Mayrina’s influence extends far beyond the newsroom. In March 2024, he was awarded the Laurus Nobilia Media Excellence in TV News Reporting, a role that underscores his commitment and excellence in Philippine broadcast journalism. Mayrina is a true believer in including media and information literacy in the educational curriculum at schools and colleges.
In a television interview with talk show host Boy Abunda, Mayrina commented that the state of journalism today is that people know where to get their news nowadays, whether it would be on television or online, adding that anchors also report on social media platforms like TikTok, Facebook, and Twitter.
“Do’n kami bumabato rin aside from, of course, our main platform, television.” he said, “Pero we are also required, for example, ‘yung mga spiels namin for news, meron din dapat version ‘yan for online, that’s the general direction,”
